Soil ecosystem is experiencing stresses due to climate change,and soil inhabitants try to demonstrate their inherent resistance and resilience against those stresses.Application of nanomaterials as agricultural inputs could bring shifts in resistance and resilience patterns of soil microbes and associated enzymes,especially under short-term heat stress.With this background,the impacts of multi-walled carbon nanotube(MWCNT)on the resistance and resilience of soil biological indicators were evaluated.An incubation experiment was conducted with varied MWCNT concentrations(0,50,100,250,and 500 mg kg-1 soil)for 90 d after 24-h heat stress at 48±2 ℃ to assess the impacts of MWCNT on soil enzyme activities and microbial populations vis-à-vis their resistance and resilience indices under short-term exposure to heat stress.Enzyme activities were reduced after exposure to heat stress.Resistance indices of enzyme activities were enhanced by MWCNT application on day 1 after heat stress,whereas there was no recovery of enzyme activities after 90-d incubation.Like soil enzyme activities,resistance index values of soil microbial populations followed the similar trend and were improved by MWCNT application.Multi-walled carbon nanotube has the potential to improve resistance indices of soil enzyme activities and microbial populations under heat stress,although they could not recover to their original state during periodical incubation after heat stress.This study helps to understand the relative changes of biological indicators under MWCNT and their ability to withstand heat stress.
